Physicist gold rut/rat of the Israeli graduate (Dr. Eliyahu M. Goldratt) theoretical system for control improvement of the production which the doctor lectures.Alsoone of the background theory of SCM is said.
Basic concept is a process which becomes the bottleneck "in production process, that decides entire throughput (production volume). For optimum production it is something it is necessary to adjust schedule of the whole process to the ability of bottleneck process, for productivity improvement bottleneck process it should be improved preponderantly ". As for the name, "theory of constraint" as a theory of production scheduling, "bottleneck process becomes constraint of entire schedule of the line", that it is derived from thinking.
TOC, thing of production scheduling being consulted the production scheduling software which gold rut/rat doctor developed in opportunity, OPT (Optimized Production Technology) is derived on the seventies latter half. At the beginning, this software was the black box, but when the novel "The Goal" which introduces the contents in 1984 is published, it became the best-sellerdom, without OPT it reached the point where you can see the enterprise which actualizes substantial productivity improvement. Then gold rut/rat doctor acquired the name which is called to the background theory TOC, separated from the sale of OPT, reached the point where you engage to management consulting.
Gold rut/rat doctor after that lectures about the methodology "of 5 step" thought process "? throughput accounting ?" critical chain projectmanagement "of improvement" and so on, TOC is developmental from mere production scheduling theory to management reformist technique for profit largest conversion of all enterprises. |
